Sore throat/clicking in throat on and off after mechanical ventilation.. anyone have any experience/advice? :(


Question:
In early March, I was placed on mechanical ventilation for about nine or so days. Since then I have had periodic throat problems... which I was told would be normal by the hospital staff. Since then, though, I have sore throats that seem horrible at times, lose my voice and now have a sort of clicking in my throat. This is pretty devastating to me because I publicly sang before this happened and now I'm left without a voice for long periods of time. I have no idea what to do about this.

Does anyone have any success stories, experience or advice about such a thing?

Thank you in advance :).

Answers:
Your throat should be examined. But I think there must be a scratch after mechanical ventilation, or your throat's mucus membrane is now more irritable to food,fluids and air.
Do not eat or drink cold or hot foods. Do not shout. Drink warm fluids more. Take some analgesic+antihistamine. Avoid places with smoke or air pollution.
